Good Grief!  I thought I was bad enough for planting too many seeds!

Lovely, they all look nice and tidy, not like mine scattered in the house and mini greenhouse.
I think i'm going to need more pots  ;D
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

I`ve nearly finished pricking out,just the late sown San Marzano and Principe Borghese still in the propagator.

I lost count somewhere near 300-I was going to retire but these seeds just said "sow me"

Oh said we only want 4 or 5 plants this year as I don't grow them at the lottie. I've had about 70 come up with about 95% germination only two died out of that lot, but I've given them away to family and friends and next door took 20 off me, I have Tigerella, Marmande, Roma and Red Cherry. Some of them are getting very big, one of the Tigerella is 12 inches high already, I'm gonna have to suss out this piccie lark.   ;D ;D ;D
MAY THE CORN BE WITH YOU.

Errrr, I'm not going to photograph my greenhouse then, 254 tomato plants potted on and counting.....(most for the plant sale though!) ;D
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

I'm growing Siletz, Beefsteak, Harbinger, Turco, Korol, Rio Fuego Nana, Striped Stuffer and a yellow vine - just a couple of each sown in late February.  I potted them up from 3" to 5" pots yesterday.
